> The progressive infantilization of people troubles me

Since you're making this political I'd like to point out that it is conservatives that have started a movement to repeal the 26th amendment and raise the voting age.




i believe you've misinterpreted the meaning of the word progressive here to refer to political progressives, rather than simply just "gradual/ongoing" which is what the use of it here suggests to me personally


I’m sorry my intent was not political though I understand the confusion.

Substitute “progressive” for “ever increasing” to retain mostly the same meaning intended.
